Is 7th grade to old to become a dancer or cheerleader?

Question by Sophie Pecilunas: Is 7th grade to old to become a dancer or cheerleader?
I used to dance when I was little, like 4-7, and now I’m 12. I’m also not very flexible. How could I work on that? BUt I want to dance or cheerlead. My dad is a coach so I have always played sports, but I liked to expand my activities. Thanks!

I don’t think so, but you have to be committed, and work really hard. To gain flexibility you have to stretch every day.Also don’t be offended if you are put with younger students. You will have time to practice and If you work hard enough you can move up to kids our age (Yes, I am 12 too)

What are some cheerleading stunts that are for 8th grade competition cheerleading?

Question by Holly <3 (:: What are some cheerleading stunts that are for 8th grade competition cheerleading?
We can do extension libs, scorpians, and scales.
I need some not to hard, but not easy!
Please be creative!

Answer by punka c
Well depending on flexibility you can add to your scorpions by pulling then from over you head down to your shoulders and back up, or even under your chin..they look good that way. You should also incorporate some front flexibility with some heel stretches or bow and arrows. You can increase difficulty by hitting the extension bringing it to a midlevel and pressing it back up. Also very important is how creative you are getting into your stunt or dismounting from it, are you twisting? At the very minimum you may make your “same ole” stunt look different with just a use of unique motions while in the air. Hope it helped.

I can only do a split,cartwheel,round-off , a little bit of a back-bend,and almost a walk-over

Best answer:

Answer by twilight = love!
i think the best way to become more flexible is to keep working on your splits, mainly your center one (this will help for toe touches and other jumps) what you can do is do a straddle position where you split your legs and try to lean forward and really feel your muscles near your thighs. if you can lean your stomach onto the floor try rolling through your straddle postion. i would also recommend keep working on your splits and stretch them for atleast 5-10 minutes a day (this will really help) another good stretch would be to practice kicks or grab your foot and pull it up as if you were kicking. one of my favorites is i lay on my stomach and bend my knees and bring them closer to my body while trying to push them down into the floor

good luck with everything! =]

Question by Ana Banana: How should I look if I am a cheerleader in 8th grade?
I am going into the 8th grade and I don’t think I look like the other cheerleaders on my squad. I have messy, curly, hair, and I don’t have the prettiest body. I was wondering if I should try to be more like the other cheerleaders, or if I should put my own fashion to the squad? Help me please, before the school year starts!!!!!!!!!!!
